What Characters whear a stove pipe style top hat?

Question

I just bought a stove pipe top hat (like this but not as nice- http://www.sacredfeather.com/wooltophat.gif ) and I was wondering who, other than my one and only The Mad Hatter, wears a similar hat? Anyone from any story/movie/whatever will do (except Abe Lincoln, I know that one).

Update:

that was just the examle i had on hand, mine IS a stove pipe...it doesn't flare out and it's skinnier

That's not a stovepipe hat, that's a tophat.  Lots of characters wear tophats.  In any movie from the 1920s or 1930s, you will see tophats all over the place.  Even some of the Munchkins in the Wizard of Oz wore tophats.  Any formal American male character from before 1935 would wear one.

This one wouldn't work for A Lincoln, really, because the width-to-height ratio is wrong.  A stovepipe hat like his is skinnier and has no flare at the top.

Byron won't play much in that movie since his motorcycle came before his fans. I heard his dilemma had to do with a knocked up skank or some skank trying to get knocked up. I wasn't paying too much attention to the movie, as I was making out in the back of the theater again ;)
